first water lily bloom. Planted out very late this year, around mid May, so they are just starting to pop up now. The recent heat spell certainly gave them a boost.

This little bloom is only 3/4" across. It's one I bought nine years ago and I'm going to have to figure out it's name again (tag floated away two years ago). If it develops more red it might be Pygmae Rubra but I'm not sure yet. It should be sunk down to 10" now but I had minor surgery on my foot so will have to wait until it heals.
